Growing up in the Brown family has been an extreme privilege. My Dad was, by far, the Patriarch of our family, and I pray a fraction of his wisdom has carried down to me. Born in Elyria, Ohio July 28, 1956, I spent the first 8 years of my life as an Ohio Buckeye. I then celebrated my 9th birthday in Tennessee, where I have remained. Here I met a wonderful southern gentleman, Charles Alfred Young, where we have reared 3 children, and now are blessed with 9 precious grandchildren. God has been good to us and we are forever grateful for all His blessings on us.
